1) Make and Model
-- KSC USP Compact (Japan version)
2) Date Purchased
-- Febuary 2006
3) Cost
-- $330 (bought from 007, hence the higher price)
4) New/Used
-- New
5) Mechanical Problems
-- Trigger broken x 2 (a known and well documented issue)
Safety no longer works, decocker still in operation (another known issue)
Unseated something in the blowback function (caused by dry-fire)
Valve-stem bent in one magazine during normal operation (haven't heard of this happening to anyone...)
6) Esthetic Problems
-- None, aside from wear and tear on the slide from being holstered in a FOBUS style holster, and the outerbarrel chambre also shows signs of wear.
7) Rounds Fired Between Failures
-- First trigger saw approx 6000-7000, second trigger has seen an equal number, perhaps a little less. Total rounds fired would be somewhere near 10 - 15k.
8) Changes to Internals
-- KSC Metal Slide/Outerbarrel, other older/used parts (from a parts piece) used to replace others that broke (due to my inexperience) while replacing the first trigger.
9) Resale Date and Value
-- N/A
10) Notes
-- This is my first and only gun, and is used as a primary 3x a week at TTAC3 currently. It's seen a lot of play, and hasn't always been treated like a showpiece. Propane only, as well as the occasional lapse in lubrication.
